Image title	Honey Springs Visitors’ Center, a multi-purpose community/visitor center and library, in Rentiesville, OK, on Wednesday, April 6, 2015. History records Rentiesville as one of thirteen remaining “All-Black Towns” that was populated by former slaves after the Civil War. Today, the community is challenged by poverty, but does have historic and cultural assets for tourism. The new visitor center will feature and capitalize on these assets. In January the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) opened bids for building a multi-purpose community/visitor center and library in Rentiesville. Highlights of Rentiesfille include being home to the great Blues legend D.C. Minner and Rentiesville’s annual Blues Festival and the town is the historic site of Oklahoma’s largest military engagement, The Battle of Honey Springs and the nation’s largest Civil War battle in which African American, American Indian, Hispanic and Anglo American soldiers engaged. The heroics of the Civil War’s first African American regiment, the First Kansas Colored, were largely responsible for the Union’s victory there. The center is a multi-million dollar partnership between four federal agencies, a state agency, McIntosh County, several local businesses, and a non-profit organization. The federal involvement includes the National Park Service, as well as all three agencies of USDA Rural Development – Rural Business Service, Rural Utilities Service and Rural Housing Service. The site offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy hiking and area wildlife, while learning about the Battle of Honey Springs and the impact of the Civil War on American Indians living in Indian Territory. The Friends of Honey Springs organization will lease the land from the Oklahoma Historical Society to construct the new center. Upon completion of the 5,000 square foot visitors’ center, the National Park Service predicts an annual visitation of 150,000 people, which would represent $9 million in tourism revenues for the local area. USDA Rural Development has awarded nearly $500,000 in grant funds and over $600,000 in financing through the Rural Business Enterprise Grant and Community Facilities programs. A portion of the financing includes a guaranteed loan through Peoples National Bank in Checotah. The project also includes a Rural Utilities Service award to Cross Telephone Cooperative to extend high-speed internet access to the area as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. State and local funds will come from $800,000 worth of site development and in-kind services from the Oklahoma Historical Society and thousands more in road improvements from McIntosh Co.
